    I appreciate the friendly notice. Like I said, I’m not out to annoy anyone, I just want to make sure that there’s a value to check the Europe community regularly because there are articles there to read. Last year we had around 10k monthly active users, right now we’re down to 5k, I think it might be because of a lack of fresh content, but that might be a wrong assumption. I’ll try to limit the defense industry insider news to fewer than three articles per day. 😜

      The reduction of MAU here is IMO mostly due to a large instance defederating from feddit.org and related drama posts that specifically highlighted this community as a reason for defederation.

        This community? The most vanilla community I’ve ever seen. What here could have caused defederation?

          Disagreements over how to handle posts & comments about the situation in the middle east. This community is just among the most exposed & english speaking communities on Feddit.org thus it has the most conflict potential.

            Yeah, that’ll do it. I keep away from all middle East stuff. Everything related to that situation is lose/lose.
